Ruling on Performing Timely Prayer Before Missed Prayer

Question
A person has missed prayers that need to be made up in order, but he started with the timely prayer. Does this invalidate his prayer?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: If the prayers exceed six, the order is dropped; and if they are fewer, the prayer is invalid unless performed in order. And God knows best.
